NB any good for PVE?

Gasper
Gasper
I'm wondering if NB is good for dps (pve) and if building stamina would be the best to go. I'm think wood elf wouldn't be so bad as NB, correct me if I'm wrong or theirs better decisions. any opinions would be greatly appreciated

    Just started a new char after being off a year. Breton NB with all in Magicka. The racial passives and light armor support this very well. I asked advice and researched before committing, myself.


    Here is my recent thread[/url] and they helped me get going in the right direction.

    I'm currently using Stam Bosmer NB, been soloing Dolmens. I use Bow / 2h for extreme survival and real good dps.

    Rally, Reaper's Mark for heals,

    Killer's Blade, Poison Injection for the finishers / execution spam.

    You can also go all sneaky and do a Cloak ( crit Morph ), Wrecking Blow, Mass Hysteria then Ambush Killer's Blade. You can focus fire on one target while keeping the rest at bay. Double Take for that amazing dodge rating and you can go lols on Dolmens. Certain bosses will give you pause but nothing that you can't handle.

    Even thinking of soloing bosses for my next NB char, current main NB is VR4 so i dont know if i can manage to solo veteran dungeons XD

    Yes, woodelf (bosmer) is a good choice. Also imperial and redguard have good synergy with stamina NB.

    Yes Bosmer is one of the top choices for stam nbs, pretty good on pve and pvp, well mine is.

    Running 2H/bow or DW/Bow, really good for dmg and pop vigour if you have it or rallly for heals.

    You can solo dolmens with little difficulty.

    Bosmer has a lot of great passives for NB`s, and stamina finally being the new meta, its the way to go.

    Redguard and Khajit make really good NB`s as well, stam based.

    I have a Dark Elf stamina NB VR8 currently. I have only had problem with two world bosses to date. Dolmens go down pretty easy. The only thing about a NB is they have very limited self heals, until you kill your first target. So groups like the first pull of a dolmen can be a little tricky. Use mark and focus that target down and you should be okay. World bosses that spawn adds, sometimes you have to mark the add and kill it to get your health back up.

    I'm a Breton NB at lvl 21 and doing good. Magicka build but using a couple stamina skills to allow a little magicka regen. Using dest staff and rest staff. Rest staff skills sure helps out sometimes mind you.

    Yeah, I maxed out my resto staff skill line just so I would have some kind of self heal.

    I ran PvE with my NB...with fair to good gear (no sets till VR levels, mostly blue some purple).

    I didn't boost my weapon/magicka damage.

    And I struggled.

    Now with weapon damage pumped high, lots of stam, and the right abilities, PvE is laughable easy.

    Stam build NB will do just fine. With my lack of decent healing, I focus'd heavily on alchemy (easy to level and make good potions), and dark cloak.

    VR16 NB, Stam build, Max all crafts.

    Azuras & Trueflame. Mostly PvP, No alts.

    Semi-retired till the lag is fixed.

    Love the Packers, Bourbon, and ESO...one of those will eventually kill me.

    I have a V10 Imperial stamina NB and I use two-handed and bow and so far I have had no real problem soloing WBs and Dolmens. I am using the following skills for two-handed: brawler, wrecking blow, ambush, forward momentum, evil hunter and my ultimate is flawless dawnbreaker. On my bow I use: poison injection, lethal arrow, swallow soul, reaper's mark, evil hunter and my ultimate is shooting star.
